About DGI
Since it's launch in 2003, the Defence Geospatial Intelligence (DGI) Conference & Exhibtion, has
become the largest and most international annual gathering dedicated to the high-level
discussion of geospatial intelligence and national security in both defence and intelligence
operations.
Addressing the use of geospatial information in scenarios such as international conflicts, defence
operations, C4ISR, humanitarian disasters, crime, national security, border control, arms treaty
monitoring and global climate change; the fundamental objective of DGI is to help organisations
understand how to build the necessary infrastructure and architecture to take advantage of
geospatial intelligence capabilities.
DGI brings together heads of geospatial intelligence, remote sensing, GIS mapping, gis data and
satellite imagery within the military, governmental and national security sectors as well as
industry solution providers. It attracts professionals who are responsible for using and integrating
geo based capabilities in their operations and organisations. DGI provides a unique forum for
defence intelligence professionals to discuss and debate the development of geospatial
intelligence capabilities.
